This is Grant, our technology guru, who is helping me get my ultrasound machine to talk to the computer. Michael and Melissa from Philips were also helping...all seems to be working well now.

Jeremy is now in Spain, these are a couple of the photos he sent sent us from the Plaza Mayor in Madrid. I think it is terrific that we can see his photos as he is enjoying his holiday, so different to when I was his age.

It was a gorgeous morning for golf, this is the 11th green.

A sweet photo Tash sent me on WhatsApp, she and Todd are down in Dunsborough at yet another wedding.

My playing partners today were Sue, Jane and Barb. It was a special day as we were celebrating Barb and Jane's 60th birthdays.

After a fun game we all gathered on the balcony for lunch and continued celebrating until late afternoon.

Today was my first working day of 2017. The Uni campus is still very quiet and peaceful and all the trees are still flowering. At lunchtime everyone in the department met for lunch at "Common Ground" which was a great way to start the working year.

Yes some of us are stupid enough to play on a day when the temperature rose to 39 degrees, but at least Barb and I did it in a cart!
